About this spot
Yoko Tako delivers classic Yanaka charm with its signature takoyaki balls that are crispy on the outside and soft inside, served alongside savory okonomiyaki for a hearty meal. The counter seating offers an intimate view of the chef's precise flipping technique as they cook up these octopus-filled snacks in batches.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order extra takoyaki immediately if you see a line forming, as portions are small and sell out quickly.
- Bring cash only; this traditional izakaya does not accept credit cards or mobile payments.
- Ask for 'kara' (dry) okonomiyaki if you prefer less sauce to soak into your takoyaki.
